I'm thinking of getting a scooter to drive to the train for commuting. Probably not the best for the SUV to drive it 1.3 miles to the train. I doubt the engine even gets close to warm....
anyways, in regards to pricing, are they firm in the cycle industry or is negotiating an option, like when you buy a car. The Honda Metropolitan scooters go for $1899 which does not seem all that bad.

Why bother with a scooter? 1.3 miles is a leisurely 10 minutes by bicycle. An old beater bike can be had for less than $100. And you don't have to worry about it being stolen.
As an alternative, an old Honda 90 or XL100 could be had for nearly nothing. You'd probably need a MC endorsement on your DL, but those are pretty easy to get.
If it were me, I'd just ride an old beater cruiser bicycle back and forth.
E.P.
That's a 20 minutes walk...
